With the change of seasons upon us, Wedding Season is in the air!!
Meet Mike and Audrey and their little guy Tru!! I have the honor of photographing their wedding this August. I had met Audrey and Tru before for some family sessions, and was beyond excited when she messaged me and told me she was engaged!!!
I remember the day,it was CHRISTMAS!! my phone buzzed...all the message said was,
"Are you busy August 22nd, 2015?"
My response:
"No, Did Santa bring you a nice gift?"
Audrey: "Yes, would you shoot my wedding that day?"
And of course, It would be my pleasure!!!
Last weekend I finally got to meet up with them and finally meet Mike for real, i had met him once while doing a session for another family and he was there, I'm suprised I didn't scare him off then, but am so glad he agreed that I would be the one to photograph their big day!

It's really so fun to get to know my brides and grooms at their engagement sessions. I can get a feel for what their wedding will be like and also they can get a glimpse of what it's going to be like working with me! This engagement session was an absolute hoot!! I got to meet Audreys Mom, Dad and good ol' Uncle Ted, and let me tell, you THIS crew is not shy!!! But neither am I, perfect fit! I cannot wait to shoot thier wedding day, but also I can't wait to make more friends and have a ton of fun!
Here's a peek into Mike and Audrey, ... Enjoy!

How did you two meet?
A: Mike installed my internet 8 days before I had Tru. (giggle)
We became instant friends. Fast forward one and half years later and we were both single and both loved Kareoke! He took me out to sing.....and the rest was history!
What attracted you to each other initially?
A: "He is the easiest person to get to know. He is open and friendly, just like I am (plus he's good looking!). And a bonus:, he's taller than me."
M: "She is good looking!, funny and sociable"

How did Mike propose:
A: "He proposed to me on Christmas Eve after Santa came to visit Truitt. He had been throwing me off for months, saying that we would never get engaged on a special occassion and that we had a few years to lose weight, before we had a wedding! He had my 'gift' sent to his dad's to throw me off and wrapped it in a huge box full of other boxes. All duct taped shut! When I got to the last box there was nothing in it and he took my ring from behind his back, got on his knee and proposed!
sigh........ I just got goosebumps typing that......
